Mike Adams throws bullpen session
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(4:49 pm ET) Phillies reliever Mike Adams threw a bullpen session Wednesday as part of a recovery from a back injury, CSN Philadelphia announced.

Adams went on the disabled list this week due to a back strain. He had no problems in the session and will throw again Friday; a Sunday return is possible.
Nick Swisher coming back Friday
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(4:49 pm ET) Indians manager Terry Francona said Wednesday that outfielder Nick Swisher is scheduled to rejoin teammates in Boston in time to play in Friday's game, MLB.com reports. 

Swisher was placed on the paternity list Tuesday and missed the game against the Tigers. He is batting .274 on the season for the Indians with six homers and 16 RBI.

by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(4:47 pm ET) Twins rookie outfielder Oswaldo Arcia delivered a pinch-hit, solo home run in the ninth inning of Wednesday's 8-3 loss to Atlanta. It was Arcia's fourth home run and first in 11 games.

Arcia, who didn't start once during the Atlanta series, is batting .115 (3 for 26) with one double, one home run and two RBI in his last 10 games (seven starts).

Cubs recall Rafael Dolis
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(4:47 pm ET) The Cubs have recalled reliever Rafael Dolis from Triple-A, the club announced.

Dolis is taking the injured Shawn Camp's roster spot. Dolis appeared in two games earlier this season for Chicago; Dolis has allowed 29 runs and 40 hits in 39 1/3 career innings.
Jonathan Schoop getting second opinion on back
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(4:46 pm ET) Orioles top position prospect Jonathan Schoop, who saw a back specialist Tuesday for his lower back issue, is getting a second opinion on the West Coast, The Baltimore Sun reports Wednesday. 

Schoop saw a spine specialist previously. The early speculation regarding Schoop is that this injury may not be a minor one. 

Salvador Perez still sitting out
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(4:43 pm ET) Royals catcher Salvador Perez continues to deal with a deep hip bruise and remained out of the lineup Wednesday in Houston. Perez should be available in an emergency. 

The Royals have not discussed a possible disabled list stint for Perez as of yet. He is day to day for now.  

Twins hope demotion is right move for Vance Worley
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(4:43 pm ET) Twins manager Ron Gardenhire expressed great disappointment with starting pitcher Vance Worley, who was optioned to Triple-A Rochester following Wednesday's loss at Atlanta. Worley, who was acquired in an offseason trade with Philadelphia, allowed three home runs in the loss and saw his ERA jump to 7.21.

"We're looking for performance here," Gardenhire said, per the Pioneer Press. "We got him in a trade. We need performance. You've seen what's happened here in a row with our starters. We needed him to step up, and it didn't work out."

Gardenhire hopes the demotion will get the right-hander on track.

"He needs to go down and get going," Gardenhire said. "I think we're just searching for the guy that we got in the trade. He's got the stuff. Now he's got to put it out on the field."

Cubs place Shawn Camp on disabled list
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(4:43 pm ET) The Cubs have placed reliever Shawn Camp on the disabled list with a sprained toe, the club announced.

Camp has been horrid this season, as he has allowed 26 hits and 14 runs over 16 2/3 innings. He allowed a run in four of his six outings in May and allowed a baserunner in five of the six.
Ramiro Pena homers in win over Minnesota
by Jack Moore | CBSSports.com
(4:41 pm ET) Braves shortstop Ramiro Pena homered for the second time in Wedneday's win over Minnesota.

Pena has started just 10 games but is hitting a robust .286/.352/.460 in a reserve role. However, he's unlikely to overtake shortstop of the future Andrelton Simmons for playing time barring an injury.
Alexi Ogando scheduled for bullpen
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(4:40 pm ET) Rangers starter Alexi Ogando is currently playing catch but is scheduled to throw a bullpen either Sunday or Monday on the road trip, FOX Sports reports Wednesday. 

Ogando said Monday that he's only throwing at around 40 percent until the Rangers allow him to amp it up. He's making slow progress and doesn't have a timetable to return.
